Overview
Horus Legal Solution successfully represented a UAE-based employer in a complex, high-value labor dispute initiated by a senior executive. The executive alleged wrongful termination and sought substantial compensation for unpaid dues, posing both financial and reputational risks to our client.
Our Approach
Our employment law team conducted a comprehensive review of the executive’s employment contract, key performance indicators (KPIs), and the company’s internal policies. We ensured every legal step aligned with the UAE Labor Law – Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021.
We established a strong defense by:
- Demonstrating lawful grounds for termination, supported by documented performance and compliance evidence.
- Filing counterclaims for breach of fiduciary duty, highlighting instances where the executive acted against the company’s best interests.
- Strategically managing communications to protect the client’s public image throughout the proceedings.
Outcome
The court dismissed all claims against our client in full. In addition, partial legal costs were awarded to the employer. Most importantly, the dispute was resolved without reputational damage, safeguarding the company’s standing in the market.
